From the creation of the earth to the ultimate showdown between the forces of good and evil, this is the greatest story ever told.
This manga adaptation of the Holy Bible tells the story of God's relationship with his people, from the creation of the earth and the early history of the Israelites, to the life of Jesus, his death, and the adventures of the first ever church.This is a faithful manga adaptation of the Bible, injected with energy by Siku's beautiful and dramatic artwork.The older target age group means that The Manga Bible tells many more stories than other children's Bibles, helping the reader gain a much more rounded picture of God. -- Alex Taylor * 'Childrens Work' Magazine *
'Judge Dredd artist gives Jesus Chris a Manga makeover... Meet the NIV drawn in the style of an action-packed Japanese cartoon. Each section - checked by Bible experts - bears a grabby headline...the style remains epic.' * The Times *
